Abstract
In multicellular organisms, the cells are surrounded by persistent, dynamic extracellular matrix (ECM), the largest calcium reservoir in animals. ECM regulates several aspects of cell behavior including cell migration and adhesion, survival, gene expression and differentiation, thus playing a significant role in health and disease. Calcium is reported to be important in the assembly of ECM, where it binds to many ECM proteins. While serving as a calcium reservoir, ECM macromolecules can directly interact with cell surface receptors resulting in calcium transport across the membrane. This chapter mainly focusses on the role of cell-ECM interactions in cellular calcium regulation and how calcium itself mediates these interactions.

Abstract
Mast cells (MCs) are important effectors of the immediate allergic response. MCs are distributed throughout various tissues and organs, and adhere to extracellular matrix (ECM) with broad stiffness in the body. Here we compared cellular responses following antigen stimulation in MCs on glass-base dishes with and without a hydrogel. We found that an antigen-induced increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration was suppressed slightly in cells on hydrogel-coated dishes compared with those on non-coated dishes, whereas their subsequent degranulation was largely inhibited in cells adherent to the hydrogel. Focusing on focal adhesions (FAs), vinculin was distributed in a dot-like manner at the bottom of resting cells on non-coated dishes but not on hydrogel-coated dishes. According to antigen stimulation, phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase and additive vinculin accumulation to FAs were promoted in cells on non-coated dishes, but were diminished on hydrogel-coated dishes. Moreover, microtubule reorganization and acetylation (which have important roles in MC degranulation) were also suppressed in activated MCs adherent to the hydrogel. These findings suggest that adhesion to a hydrogel led to failure of composition of functional FAs and microtubule tracts, which resulted in suppression of MC degranulation following antigen stimulation.

Abstract
Mast cells play a key role in allergy and other inflammatory diseases involving engagement of multivalent antigen with IgE bound to high-affinity IgE receptors (FcεRIs). Aggregation of FcεRIs on mast cells initiates a cascade of signaling events that eventually lead to degranulation, secretion of leukotrienes and prostaglandins, and cytokine and chemokine production contributing to the inflammatory response. Exposure to pro-inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, bacterial and viral products, as well as some other biological products and drugs, induces mast cell transition from the basal state into a primed one, which leads to enhanced response to IgE-antigen complexes. Mast cell priming changes the threshold for antigen-mediated activation by various mechanisms, depending on the priming agent used, which alone usually do not induce mast cell degranulation. In this review, we describe the priming processes induced in mast cells by various cytokines (stem cell factor, interleukins-4, -6 and -33), chemokines, other agents acting through G protein-coupled receptors (adenosine, prostaglandin E2 , sphingosine-1-phosphate, and β-2-adrenergic receptor agonists), toll-like receptors, and various drugs affecting the cytoskeleton. We will review the current knowledge about the molecular mechanisms behind priming of mast cells leading to degranulation and cytokine production and discuss the biological effects of mast cell priming induced by several cytokines.

Abstract
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase that has been extensively studied in fibroblasts; however its function in hematopoiesis remains an enigma. FAK is thought to be expressed in myeloid and erythroid progenitors, and its expression is enhanced in response to cytokines such as granu-locyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Furthermore, bone marrow cells cultured in granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor show active migration and chemoattractant-induced polarization, which correlates with FAK induction. While loss of FAK in mice results in embryonic lethality, we have deleted FAK in the adult bone marrow. We show an essential role for FAK in regulating hemolytic, myelotoxic, as well as acute inflammatory stress responses in vivo. In vitro, loss of FAK in erythroid and myeloid progenitor's results in impaired cytokine induced growth and survival, as well as defects in the activation and expression of antiapoptotic proteins caspase 3 and Bcl-x(L). Additionally, reduced migration and adhesion of myeloid cells on extracellular matrix proteins, as well as impaired activation of Rac GTPase is also observed in the absence of FAK. Our studies reveal an essential role for FAK in integrating growth/survival and adhesion based functions in myeloid and erythroid cells predominantly under conditions of stress.

Abstract
The small chemical vacuolin-1 induces rapid formation of large vacuoles in various cell types. In epithelial cells, vacuolin-1 has been shown to inhibit Ca2+ ionophore-induced exocytosis depending on experimental conditions used but had no effect on repair of damaged membranes. However, it is not known whether vacuolin-1 could inhibit exocytosis induced by immunoreceptor triggering in professional secretory cells and whether there is any correlation between effect of vacuolin-1 on exocytosis and membrane repair in such cells. Here we show that in rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells activated by the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) triggering vacuolin-1 enhanced exocytosis. Under identical conditions of activation, vacuolin-1 inhibited exocytosis in mouse bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs). This inhibition was not reflected by decreased phosphorylation of the FcepsilonRI alpha and beta subunits, linker for activation of T cells, non-T cell activation linker, Akt and MAP kinase Erk, and uptake of extracellular Ca2+, indicating that early activation events are not affected. In both cell types vacuolin-1 led to formation of numerous vacuoles, a process which was inhibited by bafilomycin A1, an inhibitor of vacuolar H+-ATPase. Thapsigargin- or Ca2+ ionophore A23187-induced exocytosis also showed different sensitivity to the inhibitory effect of vacuolin-1. Pretreatment of the cells with vacuolin-1 followed by permeabilization with bacterial toxin streptolysin O enhanced Ca2+-dependent repair of plasma membrane lesions in RBL-2H3 cells but inhibited it in BMMCs. Our data indicate that lysosomal exocytosis exhibits different sensitivity to vacuolin-1 depending on the cell type analyzed and mode of activation. Furthermore, our results support the concept that lysosomal exocytosis is involved in the repair of injured plasma membranes.

Abstract
Mast cells play a critical role in IgE-dependent immediate hypersensitivity. Recent studies have shown that, contrary to the traditional view, binding of monomeric IgE to Fc epsilon RI results in a number of biological outcomes in mast cells, including survival. However, IgE molecules display heterogeneity in inducing cytokine production; highly cytokinergic (HC) IgEs cause extensive Fc epsilon RI aggregation, which leads to potent enhancement of survival and other activation events, whereas poorly cytokinergic (PC) IgEs can do so inefficiently. The present study demonstrates that HC, but not PC, IgEs can efficiently induce adhesion and spreading of mouse mast cells on fibronectin-coated plates in slow and sustained kinetics. HC IgE-induced adhesion through beta1 and beta7 integrins promotes survival, IL-6 production, and DNA synthesis. Importantly, we have identified Lyn and Syk as requisite tyrosine kinases and Hck, Btk, and protein kinase C theta as contributory kinases in HC IgE-induced adhesion and spreading, whereas protein kinase C epsilon plays a negative role. Consistent with these results, Lyn, Syk, and Btk are activated in HC IgE-stimulated cells in a slower but more sustained manner, compared with cells stimulated with IgE and Ag. Thus, binding of HC IgEs to Fc epsilon RI induces adhesion of mast cells to fibronectin by modulating cellular activation signals in a unique fashion.

Abstract
High-affinity IgE receptor (FcɛRI) cross-linking on mast cells (MCs) induces secretion of preformed allergy mediators (degranulation) and synthesis of lipid mediators and cytokines. Degranulation produces many symptoms of immediate-type allergic reactions and is modulated by adhesion to surfaces coated with specific extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. The signals involved in this modulation are mostly unknown and their contribution to allergic reactions in vivo is unclear. Here we report the generation of monoclonal antibodies that potently suppress FcɛRI-induced degranulation, but not leukotriene synthesis. We identified the antibody target as the tetraspanin CD63. Tetraspanins are membrane molecules that form multimolecular complexes with a broad array of molecules including ECM protein-binding β integrins. We found that anti-CD63 inhibits MC adhesion to fibronectin and vitronectin. Furthermore, anti-CD63 inhibits FcɛRI-mediated degranulation in cells adherent to those ECM proteins but not in nonadherent cells. Thus the inhibition of degranulation by anti-CD63 correlates with its effect on adhesion. In support of a mechanistic linkage between the two types of inhibition, anti-CD63 had no effect on FcɛRI-induced global tyrosine phosphorylation and calcium mobilization but impaired the Gab2–PI3K pathway that is known to be essential for both degranulation and adhesion. Finally, we showed that these antibodies inhibited FcɛRI-mediated allergic reactions in vivo. These properties raise the possibility that anti-CD63 could be used as therapeutic agents in MC-dependent diseases.

Abstract
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a nonreceptor protein tyrosine kinase that plays an important role in many cellular processes and is tyrosine phosphorylated after FcepsilonRI aggregation in mast cells. In mice, null mutation of the fak gene results in a lethal phenotype in which the embryos fail to develop past day 8.5 of gestation. To study the role of FAK in these mast cells, 8.5-day embryos were isolated and placed in culture with IL-3 and stem cell factor (SCF). Although FAK was not required for the development of mast cells in culture, the FAK(-/-) embryo-derived mast cells had several distinct characteristics. Compared with the controls, the mast cells that lack FAK were less metachromatic and by electron microscopy had granules that appeared largely electron lucid, although their histamine content was unchanged. The FAK-deficient mast cells had a reduction in the content of chondroitin/dermatan sulfate, the major glycosaminoglycan component of the granular matrix. The FAK-deficient cells had fewer microvilli that were fused with each other, giving the cell surface a ruffled appearance. There was also a 3-fold increase in the number of cells highly expressing beta(7) integrin. However, signal transduction from the high affinity IgE receptor for the secretion of histamine was similar in the wild-type, heterozygote, and the FAK-deficient cells. The FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin, Crk-associated tyrosine kinase substrate (CAS), and mitogen-activated protein kinase proteins was independent of FAK. These results indicate that FAK plays a role in regulating the glycosaminoglycan content of the secretory granules and influences the cell surface morphology of mast cells.

Abstract
We previously showed that silver stimulates degranulation and leukotriene (LT) C(4) production in rat basophilic leukemia mast cells and now show that silver induces these events by a mechanism that differs from the FcepsilonRI-mediated response. In common with FcepsilonRI cross-linking, silver induced tyrosine phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases and furthermore, PD98059, a specific inhibitor of extracellular signal-regulated kinase kinase dose-dependently inhibited the silver-induced LTC(4) production. In contrast to FcepsilonRI cross-linking, silver had no effect on the production of IL-4 and TNF-alpha, indicating that different mechanisms are involved in the activation by these two stimuli. In line with this, silver had no or only marginal effect on the tyrosine phosphorylation of FcepsilonRIbeta, Lyn, Syk, and linker for activation of T cells, the early and crucial events in FcepsilonRI signaling. Silver induced calcium signals that were involved in the metal-induced degranulation, but not LTC(4) production. Unlike Ag, the silver-induced calcium signals were resistant to the depletion of thapsigargin-sensitive calcium stores and the inhibition of tyrosine kinases and phospholipase Cgamma. These findings indicate that silver activates mast cells by bypassing the early signaling events required for the induction of calcium influx. Our data strongly suggest the existence of an alternative pathway bypassing the early signaling events in mast cell activation and indicate that silver may be useful for analyses of such alternative mechanisms.

Abstract
Aggregation of the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells activates a tyrosine phosphorylation cascade that is required for adhesion and degranulation events leading to the release of histamine and other inflammatory mediators. The full range of intracellular mediators that regulate this process is unknown. Recent studies have identified a group of immune cell-specific adaptor proteins that include linker for activation of T-cell (LAT), SH2-domain-containing leukocyte protein (SLP-76), and Fyn-T-binding protein (FYB)/SLP-76-associated protein (SLAP). In this study, we demonstrate that FYB can up-regulate integrin-mediated adhesion to fibronectin and mediator release in RBL-2H3 mast cells. The regulation of these two events could be distinguished from each other by the requirement of the FYB SH3 domain in beta-hexosaminidase release, but not adhesion, and the up-regulation of mediator release by FYB in nonadherent cells. FcepsilonRI aggregation increased FYB tyrosine phosphorylation, whereas confocal immunofluorescence microscopy showed that FYB colocalizes with F-actin in membrane ruffles and plaques. Our findings identify FYB as a regulator of integrin-mediated adhesion and degranulation events, which, in the case of mast cells, has potential applications to inflammatory and allergic responses.

Abstract
There is a growing need to understand the impact of environmental sulfhydryl group-reactive heavy metals on the immune system. Here we show that Ag(+) induces mast cell degranulation, as does the aggregation of the high affinity immunoglobulin E receptor (FcepsilonRI). Micromolar quantities of Ag(+) specifically induced degranulation of mast cell model rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells without showing cytotoxicity. The Ag(+)-mediated degranulation could be observed as rapidly as 5 min after the addition of the ions. Ag(+) also induced a rapid change in tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple cellular proteins including the focal adhesion kinase but not Syk kinase. The Syk-selective inhibitor piceatannol and the Src family-selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor PP1 dose-dependently inhibited FcepsilonRI-mediated degranulation, whereas neither compound inhibited the Ag(+)-mediated degranulation. Furthermore, likewise FcepsilonRI aggregation, Ag(+) also induced leukotriene secretion. These results show that Ag(+) activates RBL-2H3 mast cells through a tyrosine phosphorylation-linked mechanism, which is distinct from that involved in FcepsilonRI-mediated activation.

Abstract
Mast cells play a central role in immediate allergic reactions mediated by immunoglobulin E. It has recently been reported that mast cells generate intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in response to stimulation with divergent physiologically relevant stimulants. However, the physiological role of ROS is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that mast cell model rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells generate ROS in response to antigen and the calcium-ionophore A23187 via activation of diphenyleneiodonuim (DPI)-sensitive enzyme and that blockade of ROS generation by DPI suppresses histamine release induced by either stimulant. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation of pp125(FAK) and a 77-kDa protein coprecipitating specifically with the kinase occurred in parallel with the secretion, and blockade of ROS generation by DPI also suppressed the tyrosine phosphorylation of both proteins. These findings suggest that ROS generated by a flavoenzyme-dependent mechanism may be involved in histamine release through the pp125(FAK) pathway.

Abstract
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is tyrosine-phosphorylated by adherence of cells and also by FcepsilonRI aggregation in RBL-2H3 mast cells. Using phosphorylation site-specific antibodies, we observed that FcepsilonRI activation in these cells led to an increase in FAK phosphorylation at the same tyrosine residues that are phosphorylated by integrin-induced activation. Previous studies in the 3B6 line, a FAK-deficient variant of the RBL-2H3 cells, suggest that FAK plays a role in FcepsilonRI-induced secretion. Stable cell lines expressing either full-length or truncated forms of FAK were isolated after transfection of the FAK-deficient 3B6 variant cells. The NH(2) domain of FAK, which lacks the enzymatic and the COOH-terminal regions, was sufficient to reconstitute secretion. The different truncated forms of FAK were still tyrosine-phosphorylated after FcepsilonRI aggregation. Therefore, the kinase domain and the COOH-terminal region are not essential for FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK or for secretion. Taken together, our data demonstrate that the reconstitution of secretion is dissociated from FAK activation and that the NH(2)-terminal region of FAK is the only critical element that may play a role in FcepsilonRI-induced secretion by acting as an adaptor or linker molecule.

Abstract
Some tea polyphenolic compounds including (-)-epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) have been shown to inhibit histamine release from mast cells through poorly understood mechanisms. By using a mast cell model rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells we explored the mechanism of the inhibition. EGCG inhibited histamine release from RBL-2H3 cells in response to antigen or the calcium-ionophore A23187, while (-)-epicatechin (EC) had little effect. Increased tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins including approximately 120 kDa proteins occurred in parallel with the secretion induced by either stimulation. EGCG also inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of the approximately 120-kDa proteins induced by either stimulation, whereas EC did not. The tyrosine kinase-specific inhibitor piceatannol inhibited the secretion and tyrosine phosphorylation of these proteins induced by either stimulation also. Further analysis showed that the focal adhesion kinase pp125(FAK) was one of the approximately 120-kDa proteins. These findings suggest that EGCG prevents histamine release from mast cells mainly by inhibiting tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins including pp125(FAK).

Abstract
The activation of blood cells, including T cells, triggers intracellular signals that control the expression of critical molecules, including cytokines and cytokine receptors. We show that T-cell receptor (TCR) ligation increases the cellular level of the protein linker for activation of T cells (LAT), a molecule critical for T-cell development and function. T-cell activation increased LAT messenger RNA, as determined by reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction and by Northern blotting. The TCR-induced increase in LAT expression involved the activation of the serine/threonine kinases PKC and MEK, because inhibitors of these kinases blocked the increase in LAT. Accordingly, the PKC activator phorbol myristate acetate up-regulated LAT expression. Strikingly, the calcineurin inhibitors cyclosporin A (CsA) and FK506 strongly potentiated TCR-induced LAT expression, suggesting that the activation of calcineurin following TCR ligation negatively regulates LAT expression. Accordingly, Ca++ ionophores, which can activate calcineurin by increasing intracellular Ca++, blocked the TCR-induced increase in cellular LAT. CsA and FK506 blocked the Ca++ionophores' inhibitory effect on LAT expression. Notably, CsA and FK506 preferentially up-regulated TCR-induced LAT expression; under the same conditions, these compounds did not increase the expression of 14 other molecules that previously had been implicated in T-cell activation. These data show that TCR-induced LAT expression involves the activation of the PKC-Erk pathway and is negatively regulated by the activation of calcineurin. Furthermore, the potentiation of TCR-induced LAT expression by CsA and FK506 suggests that the action of these agents involves up-regulating the cellular level of critical signaling molecules. These findings may have important therapeutic implications.

Abstract
The T cell receptor (TCR)-CD3 complex and the costimulatory molecule CD28 are critical for T cell function. Both receptors utilize protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) for the phosphorylation of various signaling molecules, a process that is critical for the function of both receptors. The PTKs of the focal adhesion family, Pyk2 and Fak, have been implicated in the signaling of TCR and CD28. We show here evidence for the regulation of TCR- and CD28-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion PTKs by protein kinase C (PKC). Thus, treating Jurkat T cells with the PKC activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) rapidly and strongly reversed receptor-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion PTKs. In contrast, PMA did not affect TCR-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of CD3zeta or the PTKs Fyn and Zap-70. However, PMA induced a strong and rapid dephosphorylation of the linker molecule for activation of T cells. PMA failed to induce the dephosphorylation of proteins in PKC-depleted cells or in cells pretreated with the PKC inhibitor Ro-31-8220, confirming the role of PKC in mediating the PMA effect on receptor-induced protein tyrosine phosphorylation. The involvement of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases) in mediating the dephosphorylation of the focal adhesion PTKs was confirmed by the failure of PMA to dephosphorylate Pyk2 in cells pretreated with the PTPase inhibitor orthovanadate. These results implicate PKC in the regulation of receptor-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the focal adhesion PTKs in T cells. The data also suggest a role for PTPases in the PKC action.

Abstract
Abstract
T cell activation initiates signals that control gene expression of molecules important for T cell function. The focal adhesion kinase Pyk2 has been implicated in T cell signaling. To further analyze the involvement of Pyk2 in T cell processes, we examined the effect of T cell stimulation on the expression of Pyk2. We found that TCR ligation or PMA increased Pyk2 expression in Jurkat T cells and in normal T cells. In contrast, TCR ligation and PMA failed to induce any detectable increase in the expression of the other member of the focal adhesion kinase family, Fak, in Jurkat T cells and induced only a weak increase in Fak expression in normal T cells. The serine/threonine kinases, protein kinase C and mitogen-activated protein/extracellular signal-related kinase kinase (MEK), regulated Pyk2 expression, as inhibitors of these kinases blocked stimulus-induced Pyk2 expression. Cyclosporin A, FK506, and KN-62 did not block Pyk2 expression; thus, calcineurin and Ca2+/calmodulin-activated kinases are not critical for augmenting Pyk2 expression. TCR ligation increased Pyk2 mRNA, and the transcriptional inhibitor actinomycin D blocked Pyk2 expression. Strikingly, Ca2+ ionophores, at concentrations that in combination with other stimuli induced IL-2 expression, blocked TCR- and PMA-induced up-regulation of Pyk2 expression. Thus, the increase in Ca2+ has opposing effects on IL-2 and Pyk2 expression. Cyclosporin A and FK506, but not KN-62, blocked Ca2+ ionophore-mediated inhibition of Pyk2 expression, implicating calcineurin in down-regulating Pyk2 expression. These results show that TCR-triggered intracellular signals increase Pyk2 expression and shed light on the molecular mechanisms that regulate Pyk2 expression in T cells.

Abstract
Engagement of integrins and other adhesion receptors can induce tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a tyrosine kinase present in focal adhesions. Furthermore, in addition to adhesion receptors, a surprising variety of stimuli, acting either on specific surface receptors or on intracellular molecules, such as PKC or Rho, can induce also tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. I suggest that a potential mechanism by which such distinct factors may modulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK is the promotion of integrin or other adhesion receptor clustering at focal adhesions.

Abstract
Murine mast cells adhere spontaneously to plate-bound vitronectin (VNPB) via alphav-containing integrins, and this adhesive interaction results in an augmented interleukin-3 (IL-3)-dependent mast-cell proliferation. In this report we demonstrate that the activation of murine mast cells through alphav-integrin, as well as through the high affinity immunoglobulin E (IgE) receptor (FcepsilonRI), results in enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK), a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase involved in mitogenic and oncogenic signal transduction. While mast cell adhesion to VNPB resulted in enhanced FAK phosphorylation, treatment with soluble vitronectin (VNSOL) failed to do so. Spontaneous mast cell adhesion to entactin (EN) did not induce tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK, demonstrating that not all adhesive interactions lead to the same sequence of biochemical events. Because FAK has intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity, we examined whether activating mast cells via alphav-integrins, or via FcepsilonRI-cross-linking stimulated the in vitro kinase activity of FAK. Both pathways were found independently to activate FAK in mast cells and together appeared additive. Protein kinase C depletion in mast cells and calcium depletion in the medium caused decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK, indicating that optimal tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK is regulated by both pathways. These data are consistent with the conclusion that the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK represents at least one example of a point of convergence in the intracellular tyrosine phosphorylation cascades induced by alphav integrin-and FcepsilonRI-mediated signal transduction pathways in mast cells.

Abstract
Interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) is an important regulatory cytokine in cell proliferation, differentiation, adhesion, mediator release, and gene induction. This diversity of effector roles is achieved by a variety of incompletely understood mechanisms. In the mast cell (MC), IFN-gamma downregulates mediator synthesis and secretion. The present study demonstrates and characterizes for the first time IFN-gamma inhibition of adhesion of the MC analogue RBL-2H3 to the extracellular matrix protein fibronectin (FN). Inhibition requires preincubation of the cells with IFN-gamma for 20 hr, and is statistically significant at 100 U/ml IFN-gamma. Flow cytometry indicates that cell surface expression of very late antigen-4 (VLA-4), VLA-5, and the vitronectin receptor (VNR) remain constant following IFN-gamma treatment, indicating the inhibitory effect of IFN-gamma on adhesion to FN is not achieved through a reduction in integrin receptors for FN. Fluorescent labelling with Texas red phalloidin demonstrated rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton in response to IFN-gamma was not significant. The tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor vanadate, and the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor L-NAME, reduced the IFN-gamma effect on adhesion to FN by 62 and 70%, respectively, demonstrating that the IFN-gamma effect is dependent upon the production of NO, potentially though a tyrosine phosphatase dependent mechanism. The NO donors sodium nitroprusside and S-nitrosoglutathione mimicked the effect of IFN-gamma. Thus, following stimulation with IFN-gamma, NO plays an autocrine role in the MC, and is able to modulate integrin function. This adds to the pathways NO is able to inhibit in the mast cell, shows that endogenous NO is able to inhibit these pathways, and suggests NO is impinging upon an element common to many signalling mechanisms in the MC.

Abstract
Integrin receptor binding to extracellular matrix proteins generates intracellular signals via enhanced tyrosine phosphorylation events that are important for cell growth, survival, and migration. This review will focus on the functions of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) protein-tyrosine kinase (PTK) and its role in linking integrin receptors to intracellular signaling pathways. FAK associates with several different signaling proteins such as Src-family PTKs, p130Cas, Shc, Grb2, PI 3-kinase, and paxillin. This enables FAK to function within a network of integrin-stimulated signaling pathways leading to the activation of targets such as the ERK and JNK/mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways. Focus will be placed on the structural domains and sites of FAK tyrosine phosphorylation important for FAK-mediated signaling events and how these sites are conserved in the FAK-related PTK, Pyk2. We will review what is known about FAK activation by integrin receptor-mediated events and also non-integrin stimuli. In addition, we discuss the emergence of a consensus FAK substrate phosphorylation sequence. Emphasis will also be placed on the role of FAK in generating cell survival signals and the cleavage of FAK during caspase-mediated apoptosis. An in-depth discussion will be presented of integrin-stimulated signaling events occurring in the FAK knockout fibroblasts (FAK-) and how these cells exhibit deficits in cell migration. FAK re-expression in the FAK- cells confirms the role of this PTK in the regulation of cell morphology and in promoting cell migration events. In addition, these results reinforce the potential role for FAK in promoting an invasive phenotype in human tumors.

Abstract
Integrin receptors play a central role in the biology of lymphocytes, mediating crucial functional aspects of these cells, including adhesion, activation, polarization, migration, and signaling. Here we report that induction of activation of the beta2-integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) in T lymphocytes with divalent cations, phorbol esters, or stimulatory antibodies is followed by a dramatic polarization, resulting in a characteristic elongated morphology of the cells and the arrest of migrating lymphoblasts. This cellular polarization was prevented by treatment of cells with the specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor genistein. Furthermore, the interaction of the activated integrin LFA-1 with its ligand intercellular adhesion molecule 1 induced the activation of the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (PYK-2). FAK activation reached a maximum after 45 min of stimulation; in contrast, PYK-2 activation peaked at 30 min, declining after 60 min. Upon polarization of lymphoblasts, FAK and PYK-2 redistributed from a diffuse localization in the cytoplasm to a region close to the microtubule-organizing center in these cells. FAK and PYK-2 activation was blocked when lymphoblasts were pretreated with actin and tubulin cytoskeleton-interfering agents, indicating its cytoskeletal dependence. Our results demonstrate that interaction of the beta2-integrin LFA-1 with its ligand intercellular adhesion molecule 1 induces remodeling of T lymphocyte morphology and activation and redistribution of the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinases FAK and PYK-2.

Abstract
Protein tyrosine kinases are critical for the function of CD28 in T cells. We examined whether the tyrosine kinases Pyk2 and Fak (members of the focal adhesion kinase family) are involved in CD28 signaling. We found that ligating CD28 in Jurkat T cells rapidly increases the tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 but not of Fak. Paxillin, a substrate for Pyk2 and Fak, was not tyrosine-phosphorylated after CD28 ligation. CD28-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was markedly reduced in the absence of external Ca2+. Previous studies have shown that the T cell antigen receptor (TCR) induces tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. In this report, the concurrent ligation of CD28 and TCR increased tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2; however, the extent of phosphorylation by both receptors was equivalent to the sum of that induced by each receptor alone. The Syk/Zap inhibitor piceatannol blocked CD28, and TCR induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2, suggesting that Syk/Zap is involved in Pyk2 phosphorylation. In contrast, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor wortmannin blocked TCR- but not CD28-induced phosphorylation of Pyk2, suggesting that CD28 and TCR activate distinct pathways to induce tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. Notably, depleting phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate-sensitive protein kinase C did not block CD28- and CD3-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. These data provide evidence for the involvement of Pyk2 in the CD28 signaling cascade and suggest that neither Fak nor paxillin is involved in the signaling pathways of CD28.

Abstract
Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase involved in integrin-mediated signal transduction pathway. In this report, we describe that the treatment of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) stimulates a significant increase in the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK in human embryonic kidney 293 cells. This stimulation is independent of cell adhesion or the integrity of the actin cytoskeleton, suggesting potentially different mechanisms by which the HGF receptors and integrins regulate the tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. Our results also suggest that the activation of Src upon HGF stimulation is likely to be one, if not the only, of the mechanisms responsible for the HGF-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK. Furthermore, we showed that a mutation in the Grb2 binding site Tyr-925 of FAK partially abolishes its increase in HGF-induced phosphorylation. Finally, we demonstrated that HGF stimulates the association of FAK with Grb2 in vitro and in intact cells and provided evidence that FAK might contribute to the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase through Ras in HGF signaling by functioning as an adapter molecule.

Abstract
Antibodies against integrins have been shown to inhibit allergic airway responses. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the beta1 integrin, very late antigen-4 (VLA-4), is involved in mast cell activation triggered by allergen exposure in sensitized animals. To do this we studied Brown Norway rats that were sensitized to ovalbumin (OA; 1 mg subcutaneously) using Bordetella pertussis as an adjuvant. Two weeks later rats were challenged with OA, pulmonary resistance (RL) was determined, and the concentrations of histamine and tryptase in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and N-acetyl-leukotriene (LT)E4 in bile were measured. Pretreatment with a monoclonal antibody against VLA-4 (TA-2) attenuated the early response after OA challenge (342.9 +/- 24.4% baseline RL versus 153.3 +/- 19.4%; p < 0.01). There were significantly lower concentrations of histamine (67.11 +/- 11.90 microgram/ml versus 26.69 +/- 1.84; p < 0.01) and tryptase (0.143 +/- 0. 035 microgram/ml versus 0.053 +/- 0.022 microgram/ml; p < 0.01) in TA-2-treated animals. The increases in the concentrations of biliary N-acetyl-LTE4 after OA challenge were also significantly lower in TA-2-treated animals. These data suggest that a selective anti-VLA-4 monoclonal antibody prevents early responses through inhibition of mast cell activation.

Abstract
The antiallergic drug oxatomide and analogs inhibit mediator release from a rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cell line, which is frequently used as a mast cell model. By investigating a series of derivatives of oxatomide with different inhibiting activities on exocytosis, we aimed to evaluate the role of their effects on the early steps of the signal transduction cascade in the inhibition of exocytosis. The active compounds induced hyperphosphorylation of tyrosine residues both in stimulated as well as in resting cells. Furthermore, some elevation of the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) formation upon antigen activation was observed for the active derivatives. Ca2+ fluxes were also studied. The inhibition of the antigen-induced 45Ca2+ influx correlated with the effects of the drugs on exocytosis. Furthermore, the inhibitory activity on antigen- and thapsigargin-mediated exocytosis correlated well. Adherence of the cells to fibronectin, stimulating cellular integrin receptors, was synergistic to antigen activation of the RBL cells. However, oxatomide did lack any effect on integrin-mediated processes, as the IC50 value for exocytosis was identical for fibronectin-adhered cells and standard cultured cells. We conclude that oxatomide and its analogs inhibit exocytosis, mainly by inhibiting Ca2+ influx over store-operated Ca2+ (SOC) channels. The drugs have a direct effect on the store-operated Ca2+ channels or affect the direct regulation of these channels.

Abstract
Evidence suggests that cellular adhesion is critical for eosinophil effector functions. Here, we tested the hypothesis that an adhesion molecule, specifically beta2 integrin, participates in intracellular signaling events of eosinophils. Eosinophils stimulated with interleukin (IL)-5 and adherent to protein-coated tissue culture plates via beta2 integrin (CD18) showed tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of proteins. Among these proteins, tyrosine phosphorylation of the 105 kD and 115 kD proteins and the product of the c-cbl protooncogene, Cbl, was specifically inhibited using soluble anti-CD18 monoclonal antibody (mAb) to block eosinophil cell adhesion. Furthermore, phosphoinositide turnover of IL-5-stimulated adherent eosinophils was also inhibited by anti-CD18 mAb, suggesting that cellular adhesion plays important roles in eosinophil signal transduction. alphaM beta2 (Mac-1, CD11b/18) was one of the beta2 integrins involved in eosinophil adhesion to protein-coated plates. We found that direct ligation of eosinophil alphaM beta2 with anti-CD11b mAb coupled to polystyrene microbeads induced tyrosine phosphorylation of a 115 kD protein and Cbl. Furthermore, anti-CD11b mAb microbeads induced increases in both phosphoinositide hydrolysis and the eosinophil degranulation response. Control antibodies, such as mouse myeloma IgG1 and anti-HLA class I antigen mAb, did not induce these cellular responses. These results suggest that engagement of beta2 integrin either by cell adhesion or by anti-CD11b mAb triggers activation of an intracellular signaling cascade, including protein tyrosine phosphorylation and phosphoinositide turnover, and subsequent cellular degranulation in human eosinophils. Tyrosine phosphorylation of a 115 kD protein and Cbl may play important roles in adhesion-dependent cellular functions of eosinophils.

Abstract
Aggregation of the FcepsilonRI, a member of the immune receptor family, induces the activation of proteintyrosine kinases and results in tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins that are involved in downstream signaling pathways. Here we report that Pyk2, another member of the focal adhesion kinase family, was present in the RBL-2H3 mast cell line and was rapidly tyrosine-phosphorylated and activated after FcepsilonRI aggregation. Tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 was also induced by the calcium ionophore A23187, by phorbol myristate acetate, or by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors. Adherence of cells to fibronectin dramatically enhanced the induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2. Although Src family kinases are activated by FcepsilonRI stimulation and tyrosine-phosphorylate the receptor subunits, the activation and tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 were downstream of Syk. In contrast, tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 by stimulation of G-protein-coupled receptors was independent of Syk. Therefore, the FcepsilonRI-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of Pyk2 is downstream of Syk and may play a role in cell secretion.

Abstract
To study the role of the focal adhesion tyrosine kinase (FAK) in receptor-mediated secretion, we transfected FAK cDNA into a variant (3B6) of the RBL-2H3 mast cell line. This 3B6 cell line expressed low levels of FAK and was defective in high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) but not Ca2+ ionophore-mediated secretion. FcepsilonRI-mediated secretion was reconstituted after transfection of wild-type FAK. Histamine release was also enhanced by the stable expression of two mutants of FAK: a kinase-inactive form in which the ATP binding site Lys-454 was replaced by Arg or a mutant in which the autophosphorylation site Tyr-397 was replaced by Phe. Therefore, the catalytic activity and the autophosphorylation site of FAK are not essential for secretion. FcepsilonRI aggregation increased the tyrosine phosphorylation of both mutants of FAK to the same extent as wild-type FAK. Therefore, tyrosine kinases activated by FcepsilonRI aggregation are phosphorylating FAK and some of these phosphorylation sites are other than Tyr-397. These results strongly suggest that FAK plays a role in FcepsilonRI-induced secretion by functioning as an adapter or linker molecule.

Abstract
The phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine residues, initially believed to be primarily involved in cell growth and differentiation, is now recognized as having a critical role in regulating the function of mature cells. The brain exhibits one of the highest levels of tyrosine kinase activity in the adult animal and the synaptic region is particularly rich in tyrosine kinases and tyrosine phosphorylated proteins. Recent studies have described the effects of tyrosine phosphorylation on the activities of a number of proteins which are potentially involved in the regulation of synaptic function. Furthermore, it is becoming apparent that tyrosine phosphorylation is involved in the modification of synaptic activity, such as occurs during depolarization, the induction of long-term potentiation or long-term depression, and ischemia. Changes in the activities of tyrosine kinases and/or protein tyrosine phosphatases which are associated with synaptic structures may result in altered tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins located at the synapse leading to both short-term and long-lasting changes in synaptic and neuronal function.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of proteins is critical for the Fc epsilon RI-induced signal transduction that leads to the release of inflammatory mediators from mast cells. Here we report the isolation of a monoclonal antibody, mAb BD2, to a 72 kDa protein that becomes rapidly tyrosine phosphorylated after Fc epsilon RI aggregation. By immunoprecipitation, immunoblotting and/or protease digestion this 72 kDa protein was different from the previously identified 68-76 kDa tyrosine phosphorylated proteins Btk, paxillin, SLP-76 or Syk. The phosphorylation of this 72 kDa protein was detectable within 15 sec after receptor aggregation and was independent of Ca2+ influx or the activation of protein kinase C. By in vitro kinase reaction, the 72 kDa protein did not autophosphorylate, which suggests that it is not a kinase, but is associated with a 140 kDa protein that was strongly phosphorylated. Studies in Syk deficient and Syk transfected variants of the RBL-2H3 cells demonstrated that the tyrosine phosphorylation of this 72 kDa protein was downstream of Syk. These data indicate that the 72 kDa protein precipitated by mAb BD2 is a novel phosphoprotein involved in Fc epsilon RI signaling.

Abstract
Signaling through the high affinity receptor for immunoglobulin E (Fc epsilon RI) results in the coordinate activation of tyrosine kinases before calcium mobilization. Receptors capable of interfering with the signaling of antigen receptors, such as Fc epsilon RI, recruit tyrosine and inositol phosphatases that results in diminished calcium mobilization. Here, we show that antibodies recognizing CD81 inhibit Fc epsilon RI-mediated mast cell degranulation but, surprisingly, without affecting aggregation-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation, calcium mobilization, or leukotriene synthesis. Furthermore, CD81 antibodies also inhibit mast cell degranulation in vivo as measured by reduced passive cutaneous anaphylaxis responses. These results reveal an unsuspected calcium-independent pathway of antigen receptor regulation, which is accessible to engagement by membrane proteins and on which novel therapeutic approaches to allergic diseases could be based.

Abstract
Activation of the muscarinic receptor in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells results in a reversal of the malignant phenotype for which spreading into a bipolar, fibroblastic morphology is a marker. The process of morphologic change requires multiple events, including alterations in adhesions to substrates and cytoskeletal re-arrangement. In this report, we demonstrate the calcium-dependent involvement of p125FAK in this cellular shape change using an inhibitor of ligand-induced calcium influx, carboxyamido-triazole (CAI). p125FAK becomes tyrosine-phosphorylated after exposure to the agonist carbachol (CC), reaching maximal phosphorylation prior to initiation of cellular shape change at 1 hr into CC exposure (386 +/- 103%). Phosphorylation remained elevated through the shape change (4-12 hr). CHOm5 cell exposure to the Ca2+-mobilizing agents maitotoxin and ionomycin also resulted in p125FAK phosphorylation. Inhibition of Ca2+ influx with CAI, an inhibitor of ligand-induced Ca2+ influx, had little effect on CC-induced phosphorylation but partially inhibited ionomycin-mediated p125FAK phosphorylation. While the intracellular Ca2+ chelator BAPTA failed to prevent CC-induced p125FAK tyrosine phosphorylation, it inhibited phosphorylation due to ionomycin. CC induced Ca2+-independent binding of phosphorylated p125FAK selectively to the C-terminal SH2 domain of phosphatidylinositol-3'-kinase (PI3K). Further, CC, maitotoxin and ionomycin induced in vitro kinase activity of p125FAK for the exogenous substrate poly(Glu4Tyr1). Kinase activity stimulated by all 3 agonists was inhibited by preincubation with either CAI or BAPTA. Our results indicate that increasing intracellular Ca2+ can stimulate both p125FAK autophosphorylation and kinase activity; however, p125FAK phosphorylation in response to CC also may be induced through a Ca2+-independent pathway.

Abstract
Engagement of beta1 integrins in terminally differentiated human B cell lines, such as ARH-77, leads to prominent tyrosine phosphorylation of the p130 Crk-associated substrate (Cas). Cas regulates the assembly of several SH2 and SH3 domain-containing proteins into signaling complexes, which are potentially involved in the propagation of downstream signals. We demonstrate here that immunoprecipitated Cas from beta1 integrin-stimulated ARH-77 cells was associated with tyrosine kinase and phosphatase activities and that integrin ligation led to the recruitment of at least p59(Fyn) tyrosine kinase and SHP2 tyrosine phosphatase in Cas immune complexes. Cotransfection studies in COS-7 cells further indicated that Fyn/Cas physical interaction and Fyn-mediated Cas phosphorylation required amino acids 638-889 in the C-terminal region of Cas. This sequence contains both c-Src SH2 and SH3 domain-binding motifs. In vitro binding studies using glutathione S-transferase fusion proteins derived from the SH2 or SH3 domains of Fyn suggested that both Fyn domains can participate in Fyn/Cas interaction. These data implicate Fyn and SHP2 as potential modulators of Cas signaling complexes in B cells.

Abstract
The SH2 domain-containing inositol-polyphosphate 5-phosphatase, SHIP, associates with FcgammaRIIB and negatively regulates both B-cell and mast cell function. We report here that SHIP was tyrosine-phosphorylated after high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) aggregation in rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells. The tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP was an early event after receptor aggregation and was present in cells deficient in the protein-tyrosine kinase Syk. Furthermore it was not secondary to the increase of intracellular calcium or the activation of protein kinase C. SHIP was precipitated by immobilized phosphorylated synthetic peptides based on the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) of the beta but not the gamma subunit of the high affinity IgE receptor. Tyrosine phosphorylation of SHIP and its association with the tyrosine-phosphorylated beta subunit of FcepsilonRI could play an important role in down-regulating receptor-mediated signal transduction in mast cells. Thus, whereas the activation molecule Syk associates with the gamma subunit ITAM, the beta subunit ITAM binds the negative signaling molecule SHIP. Therefore, unlike B cells where the antigen receptor and coreceptors such as FcgammaRIIB or CD22 each recruits molecules with opposite effects, the FcepsilonRI contains subunits which recruit molecules that activate and inhibit signal transduction.

Abstract
One of the earliest events after aggregation of the high affinity receptor for IgE (FcepsilonRI) on mast cells is the activation of protein tyrosine kinases resulting in tyrosine phosphorylation of numerous proteins. Using a monoclonal antibody raised against the rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells, we identified that platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1 or CD31) was tyrosine phosphorylated in these cells. Aggregation of PECAM-1 did not induce a detectable increase in its tyrosine phosphorylation, nor did it result in degranulation. However, the minimal tyrosine phosphorylation of PECAM-1 in nonstimulated cells was dramatically increased after FcepsilonRI aggregation. This receptor-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of PECAM-1 was an early event, independent of Ca2+ influx or of the activation of protein kinase C and of cell adhesion. PECAM-1 is an adhesion molecule that is required for the transmigration of leukocytes across the endothelium into sites of inflammation. Therefore tyrosine phosphorylation of PECAM-1 may modulate its interaction with other molecules, thereby regulating the migration of basophils into inflammatory sites.

Abstract
AbstractThe involvement of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in myeloid differentiation was investigated in primary murine bone marrow (BM) cells. In unstimulated BM, FAK mRNA was detected in myeloid and lymphoid cells, but not in erythroid precursors. When the BM cells were incubated with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF ) or interleukin-3 (IL-3), FAK expression showed a remarkable difference depending on the cytokine. Although FAK was upregulated in the cells stimulated by GM-CSF (GM-treated cells), the kinase was barely detectable in the cells cultured with IL-3 (IL-3–treated cells). Morphology and flow cytometry analysis showed GM-CSF promoted the growth and differentiation of monocyte/macrophage lineage stronger than IL-3. In addition, motility of the cytokine-differentiated cells showed an overt distinction between the cultures, which was closely correlated with FAK expression. After 7 days of stimulation, GM-treated cells showed active migration and chemoattractant-induced morphologic polarization. In contrast, IL-3–treated cells showed minimal migration and polarization. These results suggest an important role of GM-CSF in the terminal differentiation of monocytes/macrophages, and possible involvement of FAK in functional maturity of this lineage.

Abstract
Rat basophilic leukemia cells will adhere to and spread out on fibronectin coated surfaces in an integrin dependent manner. Adhesion and spreading on fibronectin leads to increased degranulation, inositol phosphate production, phospholipase D activation, and increased production of prostaglandin D2 and leukotriene C4 when the cells are activated through the high affinity IgE receptor. Rat basophilic leukemia cells will also adhere to surfaces coated with anti-rat class I antibodies, poly-L-lysine, and a lectin purified from Tetragonolobus purpureas. In all cases, antigen activated cells, which were adherent, displayed increased signaling, degranulation and eicosanoid production as compared to cells which were non-adherent. Cells which adhere to either anti-rat class I antibodies or poly-L-lysine also spread even though this is not mediated through integrins. In contrast, adhesion to the lectin from Tetragonolobus did not cause any appreciable spreading unless the cells were also triggered through the IgE receptor. Cells were also able to bind to fibronectin immobilized on polystyrene beads which mimics adhesion but does not allow spreading. However, these cells exhibited no increased signaling, degranulation, or eicosanoid production. Furthermore, rat basophilic leukemia cells can be modified by incubating them in the presence of biotinylated-phosphatidylserine which becomes incorporated into the membrane. These modified cells will adhere to streptavidin coated plates while unmodified cells will not. However, these modified cells do not spread, even after activation with antigen, and they show no increased degranulation or production of eicosanoids. These results indicate that adhesion itself is not sufficient for upregulation of the cells in response to antigen and that spreading of the cells may be the critical component.

Abstract
Stimulation of the IgE high affinity receptor on rat basophilic leukemia RBL-2H3 cells results in activation of protein tyrosine kinases and rapid tyrosine phosphorylation of several substrates, many of which remain unidentified. In this report, we demonstrate that the Grb2 adapter protein, when expressed as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein, associates with four tyrosine-phosphorylated molecules (116, 76, 36, and 31 kDa) from lysates of stimulated RBL-2H3 cells. We show further that the 76-kDa protein is SLP-76, a hematopoietic cell-specific protein first identified as a Grb2-binding protein in T cells. Upon stimulation of the high affinity receptor for IgE, SLP-76 undergoes rapid tyrosine phosphorylation and associates with two additional tyrosine phosphoproteins of 62 and 130 kDa via the SH2 domain of SLP-76. Additional studies demonstrate that the SLP-76 SH2 domain also binds a protein kinase from stimulated RBL-2H3 cell lysates. Furthermore, the phosphorylation of SLP-76 requires Syk activity but is not dependent on Ca+2 mobilization. These data, together with our previous work documenting its role in T-cell activation, suggest that SLP-76 and the proteins with which it associates may play a fundamental role in coupling signaling events in multiple cell types in the immune system.

Abstract
Integrin ligation initiates intracellular signaling events, among which are the activation of protein tyrosine kinases. The related adhesion focal tyrosine kinase (RAFTK), also known as PYK2 and CAKbeta, is a tyrosine kinase that is homologous to the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) p125FAK. The structure of RAFTK is similar to p125FAK in that it lacks a transmembrane region, does not contain Src homology 2 or 3 domains, and has a proline-rich region in its C terminus. Here we report that RAFTK is a target for beta1-integrin-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation in both transformed and normal human B cells. Ligation of the B cell antigen receptor also induced tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK. Phosphorylation of RAFTK following integrin- or B cell antigen receptor-mediated stimulation was decreased by prior treatment of cells with cytochalasin B, indicating that this process was at least partially cytoskeleton-dependent. One of the tyrosine-phosphorylated substrates after integrin stimulation in fibroblasts is p130cas, which can associate with p125FAK. RAFTK also interacted constitutively with p130cas in B cells, since p130cas was detected in RAFTK immunoprecipitates. Although the function of RAFTK remains unknown, these data suggest that RAFTK may have a significant function in integrin-mediated signaling pathways in B cells.

Abstract
The isoflavinoid genistein is a protein-tyrosine kinase inhibitor which has been identified as a putative cancer prevention agent. Its consumption is associated with a low incidence of clinical metastatic prostate cancer in the face of a sustained high incidence of organ-confined prostate cancer. We therefore undertook studies to examine genistein's effect upon cell adhesion as one possible mechanism by which it could be acting as an antimetastatic agent. A morphogenic analysis revealed that genistein caused cell flattening in a variety of cell lines: PC3-M, PC3, and DU-145 prostate carcinoma cells, as well as MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells. Mechanistic studies focused on the highly metastatic PC3-M cell line, and revealed that cell flattening was accompanied by an increase in cell adhesion. Further investigations demonstrated that focal adhesion kinase (FAK) accumulated in areas of focal cell attachment, and that this accumulation occurred only when cells were actively undergoing genistein-mediated morphologic change. Concurrent formation of a complex between the cell attachment molecule, beta-1-integrin, and FAK was shown to occur, and to correlate with transient activation of FAK activity. Genistein is presented as a novel investigative tool for use in the study of molecular events involved in the process of cell adhesion.

Abstract
Platelets express a single low affinity receptor for immunoglobulin, FcgammaRII, that triggers multiple cellular responses upon interaction with multivalent immune complexes. In this study we show that immobilized IgG is also a potent stimulant of platelet activation triggering adhesion, aggregation, massive dense granule secretion, and thromboxane production. Platelet adhesion to IgG was blocked by the FcgammaRII receptor-specific monoclonal antibody, IV. 3. Pretreatment of the platelets with cytochalasin D to inhibit actin polymerization similarly prevented cell binding to IgG having no effect on platelet binding to fibrinogen. Platelet adhesion to IgG also led to the induction of tyrosine phosphorylation of multiple proteins including pp125(FAK) and p72(SYK). These proteins were also tyrosine-phosphorylated in alphaIIbbeta3-deficient IgG-adherent platelets from patients with Glanzmann's thrombasthenia. These data demonstrate that FcgammaRII mediates pp125(FAK) phosphorylation and platelet adhesion to IgG independent of the integrin alphaIIbbeta3. Treatment of the platelets with bisindolylmaleimide to inhibit protein kinase C prevented phosphorylation of pp125(FAK) as well as several other proteins, but not p72(SYK) phosphorylation. This study establishes that the FcgammaRII receptor mediates pp125(FAK) phosphorylation via protein kinase C.

Abstract
Adhesion of RBL-2H3 mucosal mast cells to fibronectin-coated surfaces has been linked to changes in secretion and tyrosine kinase activity. We now show that adhesion affects the sensitivity of RBL cells to the protein kinase C activator phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA). In suspended cells, PMA inhibited antigen-induced calcium influx (as measured by manganese influx) and changes in intracellular free calcium and had complex effects on antigen-stimulated secretion. However, in adherent cells PMA had little effect on these responses. Suspended cells only secreted in response to thapsigargin if they were co-treated with PMA, while adherent cells secreted in response to thapsigargin alone. The thapsigargin-induced secretion in adherent cells was inhibited by protein kinase C down-regulation and by the protein kinase C inhibitor GF 109203X, but not by calphostin C. We suggest that protein kinase C is constitutively activated in adherent cells, possibly due to modification of the regulatory domain of the enzyme.

AG-18, an inhibitor of protein-tyrosine kinases, was employed to study the role of tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in insulin- and phorbol ester-induced signaling cascades. When incubated with Chinese hamster ovary cells overexpressing the insulin receptor, AG-18 reversibly inhibited insulin-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of insulin receptor substate-1, with minimal effects either on receptor autophosphorylation or on phosphorylation of Shc64. Under these conditions, AG-18 inhibited insulin-stimulated phosphorylation of the ribosomal protein S6, while no inhibition of insulin-induced activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase or MAPK was detected. In contrast, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced activation of MAPK kinase and MAPK and phosphorylation of S6 were inhibited by AG-18. This correlated with inhibition of TPA-stimulated tyrosine phosphorylation of several proteins, the most prominent ones being pp114 and pp120. We conclude that Tyr-phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate-1 is the main upstream regulator of insulin-induced S6 phosphorylation by p70s6k, whereas MAPK signaling seems to be activated in these cells primarily through the adaptor molecule Shc. In contrast, TPA-induced S6 phosphorylation is mediated by the MAPK/p90rsk cascade. A key element of this TPA-stimulated signaling pathway is an AG-18-sensitive protein-tyrosine kinase.

Abstract
We have isolated a cDNA encoding a novel human intracytoplasmic tyrosine kinase, termed RAFTK (for a related adhesion focal tyrosine kinase). In addition, we have cloned and characterized the murine homolog of the human RAFTK cDNA. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences of human RAFTK and murine Raftk cDNAs revealed 95% homology, indicating that RAFTK is highly conserved between these species. The RAFTK cDNA clone, encoding a polypeptide of 1009 amino acids, has closest homology (48% identity, 65% similarity) to the focal adhesion kinase (pp125FAK). Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequences also indicates that RAFTK, like pp125FAK, lacks a transmembrane region, myristylation sites, and SH2 and SH3 domains. In addition, like pp125FAK, RAFTK contains a kinase domain flanked by large N-terminal (426 residues) and C-terminal (331 residues) domains, and the C-terminal region contains a predicted proline-rich stretch of residues. In fetal tissues, RAFTK expression was abundant in brain, and low levels were observed in lung and liver. In adult tissues, it was less restricted, indicating that RAFTK expression is developmentally up-regulated. Expression of RAFTK was also observed in human CD34+ marrow cells, primary bone marrow megakaryocytes, platelets, and various areas of brain. The human RAFTK gene was assigned to human chromosome 8 using genomic DNAs from human/rodent somatic cell hybrid lines. The mouse Raftk gene was mapped to chromosome 14, closely linked to gonadotropin-releasing hormone. Using specific antibodies for RAFTK, a approximately 123-kDa protein from the human megakaryocytic CMK cell line was immunoprecipitated. Treatment of the megakaryocytic CMK cells with thrombin caused a rapid induction of tyrosine phosphorylation of RAFTK protein. The structural features of RAFTK suggest that it is a member of the focal adhesion kinase gene family and may participate in signal transduction in human megakaryocytes and brain as well as in other cell types.

Abstract
1. We investigated the effect of Clostridium botulinum C3 ADP-ribosyltransferase upon beta-hexosaminidase release induced by various stimuli from streptolysin-O (0.5-1 U/ml)-permeabilized rat basophilic leukemia (RBL-2H3) cells. 2. The C3 transferase inhibited beta-hexosaminidase release induced by Ca2+ or by guanosine-5'-(3-thiotriphosphate) (GTP gamma S) plus Ca2+. 3. The C3 transferase also inhibited beta-hexosaminidase release induced by stimulating high affinity IgE and m3 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors. 4. The substrate for the C3 transferase was present in cytosol of RBL-2H3 cells, indicating the presence of rho p21. About 60% of the total cellular substrate protein remained within the cells permeabilized by 1 U/ml of streptolysin-O. 5. The protein rho p21 appears to be regulated by several pathways and it may function as an integration point for exocytosis.

Abstract
The cDNA encoding the rat equivalent of the human hematopoietic tyrosine phosphatase, also known as leukocyte phosphatase, was isolated from a rat basophilic leukemia mast cell cDNA library. By two-dimensional electrophoresis, the protein expressed in the mast cells was of a size (40 kDa) and pI (6.9) predicted from the deduced amino acid sequence. Thus, although previously shown to be preferentially expressed in T cells and B cells, the phosphatase is also found in mast cells. By immunofluorescence microscopy, rat hematopoietic tyrosine phosphatase localized to discrete, globular compartments within the cytoplasm and was not found either in the nucleus or associated with the cell surface membrane. Aggregation of high affinity IgE receptors in the mast cells induced tyrosine phosphorylation of the phosphatase. The tyrosine phosphorylation was mimicked by stimulation with calcium ionophore A23187 but not by direct activation of protein kinase C. Since phosphorylation of the phosphatase was dramatically reduced when the cells were activated in Ca(2+)-free media, it is dependent on a rise in intracellular Ca2+. These data strongly suggest that hematopoietic tyrosine phosphatase may be involved in the IgE receptor-mediated signaling cascade.
